Manitoba, Canada
there aint a theme park within a hundred miles of here I can guarantee you. The only thing close we have to that is a local fair with a bunch of rides that's only open for 1 week a year

Sorry for another long bump, but Fury 325 has officially been announced for the Carowinds 2015 season.

With a 325 ft. drop at 81 degrees and a top speed 95 miles per hour, Fury will be the longest, fastest, and tallest gigacoaster in the world.

Here is an interview with Carowinds general manager Mike Fehnel about the ride. Additionally, here's an animation.


What do you guys think? Would you ride Fury 325?

I really do wish there was an actual theme park near me. The only one in the state is this tiny, ghetto, sad excuse for a theme park that I doubt is even built to code. AND it's still a good long drive from me.

I really wish I could enjoy rollercoasters but I get motion sickness up the ass from being a car too long. Smaller ones are fine but I'd rather not wind up vomiting mid ride and have it splash back in my face.

Good old (Class) Action Park.

Yeah, the locations of some of these parks really do make it hard to enjoy them. Luckily, I live three hours outside of Orlando, so it's not too far of a drive.

Check out the beginner's section in the OP. Maybe it could help you out.
